Meshes of the Afternoon, Maya Deren’s cinematic investigation into the symbolic language of objects, is one of the most influential works in American experimental cinema. A non-narrative work, it has been identified as a key example of the "trance film," in which a protagonist appears in a dreamlike state, and where the camera conveys his or her subjective focus. The central figure in Meshes of the Afternoon, played by Deren, is attuned to her unconscious mind and caught in a web of dream events that spill over into reality. In this film, events are open-ended and interrupted, suggested, rather than asserted. Deren explained that she wanted "to put on film the feelin g which a human being experiences about an incident, rather than to re cord the incident accurately."

Meshes of the Afternoon at Sean Kelly, is a group painting exhibition that explores the ways in which contemporary painting draws on avant-garde cinematic techniques to create charged psychological narratives and dreamlike mise en scenes. In these works, architecture, object and subject are depicted in shifting relation to one another, blurring the boundaries between reality and fiction. Meshes explores the figurative impul se in current painting, with a particular focus on deconstr ucted narratives, non-linear time and the mediated image.
